The second edition of The Oxford Group & Alcoholics Anonymous: A Design for Living That Works is one of author Dick B.'s leading A.A. History Books. www.dickb.com/Oxford.shtml.
This covers the progenitors of the group and the various phases of the Group from A First Century Christian Fellowship to the Groups to the Oxford Group to Moral Re-Armament. It specifically lays out the 28 life-changing principles of the Oxford Group that had an impact on A.A., A.A. History, and A.A. Twelve Steps. It lists the many Oxford Group expressions with exact parallels in A.A. writings. It discusses the lives of Oxford Group founder Frank N.D. Buchman, Reverend Samuel M. Shoemaker (a major leader in America), and Bill Wilson--cofounder of A.A.--who belonged to the Oxford Group from 1934 to August of 1937 and knew both Buchman and Shoemaker. There is a huge bibliography of hundreds of Oxford Group books Dick B. has read and cited and utilized in his A.A. history books and articles.
This book is now available in most bookstores, on amazon.com, in print-on-demand form, and soon to be in eBook format. It can also be purchased through Dick B.'s own website: www.dickb.com/Oxford.shtml.
